In this paper we describe kinetic investigations of the action of testicular hyaluronidase on hyaluronan. We have compared the use of two spectrophotometric assays, the first based on the Morgan-Elson reaction and the second on the neocuproine reaction. With the neocuproine reaction Km was found to be 0.46 mg/ml and Vmax to be 126 nmol l-1 s-1. Because of a low sensitivity and the production of interfering precipitates, the Morgan-Elson assay cannot be used for kinetic investigation of the enzyme. Furthermore this assay is prone to interference from compounds such as disodium cromoglycate, (+)-catechine, penicillamine, CaCl2 and acetate buffer.
在本文中,我们描述了睾丸透明质酸酶对透明质酸作用的动力学研究。我们比较了两种分光光度法的应用,第一种基于摩根-埃尔森反应,第二种基于新铜试剂反应。通过新铜试剂反应,发现米氏常数(Km)为0.46mg/ml,最大反应速率(Vmax)为126nmol l-1 s-1。由于灵敏度低且会产生干扰性沉淀,摩根-埃尔森测定法不能用于该酶的动力学研究。此外,该测定法容易受到诸如色甘酸二钠、(+)-儿茶素、青霉胺、氯化钙和醋酸盐缓冲液等化合物的干扰。
